How do you evolve magmar in Pokemon SoulSilver?

Answer 1

Well, assuming you already HAVE a Magmar, this can be done by traveling to Cinnabar Island after defeating all 16 gym leaders and reciving Rock Climb from Proffessor Oak. Then, climb the volcano and press "A" while facing the tip of the volcano a bit. Search around a little to find the "Magmarizer". Next, Give it to your Magmar, trade it to someone, then trade back. Pokemon Soulsilver is compatible with Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, and Heartgold, as well as Soulsilver.

An alternative method to evolve Magmar is to give it the "Magmarizer", then place it in the GTS. (Global Trade Station). It is found in Goldenrod city. Be sure to ask for a Pokemon that is impossible to obtain, such as a Level 9 or under Mew, or else you may permanantly lose your Magmar and the Magmarizer.

Now, just make a normal trade with any Pokemon by selecting "Seek Pokemon". After you have traded, select "Summary" and take out your Magmar. It will then evolve into Magmotar, assuming the other trade was completed normally.

Hope this helped!
